Why do some doctors choose to start their own private practise and some work for GP chains like healthway? How much difference do they make in the above?

The interest of the job as well as being able to have an out side life more than compensates for not earning as much as a cardio-thoracic surgeon. By the way, I'm a GP and loving it!

So are you keen to move on to other place to work as a GP

hmm i think most of these high-earning tax evading GPs owned their own clinic practices. not many GPs go into "business" and among those that do, the more enterprising ones are able to rake in more cash, just like anyone else in any other businesses.

I work only about 35 hrs a week unlike many other GPs who work longer hrs. Also, I do not do aesthetics. I think those who do things like botox prob earn much more.

If they are at the same age, the hospital doc wins hands down. What I can't fathom is the poly doc is like working in a production line.

It is an open secret that MOH uses FTs in such 'factory' polyclinics. Don't believe go visit your closest polyclinic. Whether this practice is good or not for us older and poorer Singaporeans is the question.
